Anthony Pompliano, Morgan Creek Digital’s co-founder and partner, was quoted as saying:
Calling the challenge “Buffett Bet 2.0,” Morgan Creek Digital is inviting anyone who believes that the S&P 500 will outperform its index fund over a decade to take the other side of the bet, the news outlet detailed. The company’s $1 million will be funded by its partners. Pompliano said the intention is for the winner to donate the proceeds to charity.
Pompliano explained that this index fund was structured to give similar exposure to the S&P 500, but with cryptocurrencies. It was launched in partnership with Bitwise Asset Management. Bitwise also manages three other crypto funds, two of which were launched on Wednesday.
The Digital Asset Index Fund tracks the Morgan Creek Bitwise Digital Asset Index. Its 10 constituents as of Aug. 27 are BTC (77.5%), ETH (11.1%), BCH (2.4%), LTC (2.3%), EOS (2.2%), ZEC (1.0%), XMR (1.0%), DASH (0.9%), IOTA (0.7%), and NEM (0.7%).
